| BillyBong said: also, because the ps4 has already done this upgrade fee thing before, i don't see how it's silly to assume that something could also be in place for TLOU. How do you guys think gamers would of felt buying those ps3 games late gen, and having to pay full price again for the ps4 HD versions. BF4, COD:G, AC.. A shitstorm with publicity would of hurt those games had they forced gamers to rebuy the next gen version of the same game they already purchased, but they did right with the $10 upgrade fee.. don't see why Sony couldnt do the same thing. |
The problem is I can buy the PS3 disk version of TLoU for < $20 used now, and then upgrade to the PS4 version for $10. Why would anyone buy the game new, when they can just get one of the 6M used copies and upgrade?
The $10 upgrade at launch was only on a limited quantity of games that launched on the old generation, and then came out on the new generation a month later. There are a lot of last-gen ports coming that will have the same situation as TLoU. Tomb Raider, GTAV, Metro, Shadow warrior, etc. None of them will have $10 upgrades.
